I suggest you figure out what chip set your card uses. In my case the
DWL-G650 used a prism chipset. The prism54 driver worked for it. That
driver does not use the ndiswrapper. I have found you have to be very
specific when looking for drivers. The same model card from a
manufacturer can have slightly different revisions with different chip
sets.
Good luck.
